Finnegan is a 6 month old MF gib. Recently, his breath has smelled of urine, and his urine also has a strong odor. Otherwise, he is eating, urinating, playing, etc. as normal. He's fed a mix of 8 in 1 Ultimate, and Sheppard & Green Super Premium ferret food, so his diet is ok. I have found him vomitting a few times over the past month, but did not find a reason for concern. His only health history was ECE when he was purchased as a kit, which he recovered from. Would this bad smelling breath be a cause for concern, warrent a trip to the vet? Any thoughts would be most appreciated. Thank you, Jennifer, Finn and Jude.
